I climbed up the water tower just to see what I could see
The first thing that I noticed was it was too high for me
As I stared down at the ground and imagined myself falling down
I looked up at the sky and shouted out this cry
[chorus]
Lord, I am yours no matter where you lead me to
I won’t hold on to fear for I belong to you
Lord, I am yours no matter where I may be
I won’t hold on to fear for you are holding on to me
I climbed down that water tower knowing all the risk I faced
The first thing that I noticed was my fear had fled away
As I descended to the ground I felt your spirit coming down
And I looked up to the sky and shouted out this cry
[chorus]
[bridge]
Yea, though I walk through death’s shadow
I will have no fear
I will walk in the intrepid light of love
and overcome; I will overcome
